MONTREAL. MONTREAL The commercial metropolis of the Do- minion, and the most populous of Canadian cities, (population in i88i, 140,682), is sit- uated at the head of Ocean navigation, 540 miles from the Gulf of St Lawrence, on the Island of Montreal, which lies between the two great rivers of the north the St. Lawrence and Ottawa. The Island is 32 miles long by 10 broad ; with the exception of the Moun- tain, which rises to the height of 739 feet, it is nearly level, the soil is fertile, well culti- vated and watered, the climate is particularly favorable for the growth of nearly all kinds of grain, fruit and vegetables. The settlement of the town was originally determined by the first explorer, Jacques Cartierin 1 535, at which time an Indian village called Hochelaga occu- pied the spot. Jacques Cartier, on beholding the beautiful scenery from the Mountain, gave the name of Mount Royal which, slighty mo- dified, it still retains. It was under French mle until 1760, when it passed into the hands of the British. At the beginning of the present century, vessels of more than 300 tons could not come up to Montreal, and foreign trade was carried on by brigs and barges.

I j; J li ' Years of industry, intelligence, enterprise and labour, have produced a mighty contrast. Ocean Steamers of 5,000 tons now lay along the wharves of the harbour. In 1832 Cholera raged in Montreal with great violence, carrying off 1,832 inhabitants. In 1852 a large portion of the City was de- stroyed by fire ; 1,1 oS houses and property to the amount of $1,363,294 destroyed. The older parts of the City, near the river, have narrow, incommodious streets ; but the growth of the City toward the Mountain has been liberally laid out with wide, cheerful thoroughfares. The buildings are large and finely constructed, chiefly of limestone quar- ried near the City. Notre Dame is the main street, running along a ridge on which the City was originally built. St. James Street, near, and running for some way parallel with it, is wider and more elegant. The principal business streets are : — Notre Dame, St. James, St. Paul, St. Lawrence, McGill, Craig and St. Joseph. The Harbour. — The wharfage accom- modation measures 16,140 lineal feet, or more than 3 miles, with 11,690 feet of wharf room in 20 feet depth of water.

There are numerous inclined planes from the wharves, by which carriages ascend to the street above ; and the whole, for appear- ance, commodiousness, and cleanliness, is unsurpassed by any port on the continent. The Victoria Bridge, completed in i860, is nearly two miles in length (9084 ft.) is used only for railway transit. It is sup- ported by 24 piers, the central span being 550 feet, and 60 feet high, the remaining piers being 242 feet, with massive abutments. The bridge tube is of iron, 22 feet high by 16 wide, lessening at the ends. It was erected at a cost of $6,300,000. Three mil- lion cubic feet of masonry and ten thousand tons of iron enter into the construction of this massive work. The river beneath the bridge has a swift current, and the piers are calcu- lated to withstand immense pressure from descending masses of ice. The Winter Season in Montreal is par- ticularly attractive ; the weather is sunny and bracing, and the sleighing, toboganning, skating and curling are enjoyed to perfection, and many scores of parties from the States come north every winter to enjoy the sports and pastimes. ■■■i-» 'mm tm t, afford- hipping. from the d to the appear- ness, is nent. eted in )o84 ft.) is sup- n being maining itments. high by It was ree mil- ousand of this bridge calcu- e from is par- sunny nning, ection, States sports GUIDE BOOK OF MONTREAL.
